Mucus hypersecretion and persistent airway
inflammation are common features of various airway diseases, such as
asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cystic fibrosis. One
key question is: does the associated airway inflammation in
these diseases affect mucus production? If so, what is the underlying
mechanism? It appears that increased mucus secretion results
from increased mucin gene expression and is also frequently accompanied
by an increased number of mucous cells (goblet cell
hyperplasia/metaplasia) in the airway epithelium. Many studies on mucin
gene expression have been directed toward Th2 cytokines such as
interleukin (IL)-4, IL-9, and IL-13 because of their known
pathophysiological role in allergic airway diseases such as asthma.
However, the effect of these cytokines has not been definitely linked
to their direct interaction with airway epithelial cells. In our study,
we treated highly differentiated cultures of primary human
tracheobronchial epithelial (TBE) cells with a panel of cytokines
(interleukin-1 , 1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, and tumor necrosis factor ). We found that IL-6 and
IL-17 could stimulate the mucin genes, MUC5B and
MUC5AC. The Th2 cytokines IL-4, IL-9, and IL-13 did not
stimulate MUC5AC or MUC5B in our experiments. A
similar stimulation of MUC5B/Muc5b expression by IL-6 and
IL-17 was demonstrated in primary monkey and mouse TBE cells. Further investigation of MUC5B expression demonstrated that
IL-17's effect is at least partly mediated through IL-6 by a
JAK2-dependent autocrine/paracrine loop. Finally, evidence
is presented to show that both IL-6 and IL-17 mediate MUC5B
expression through the ERK signaling pathway.
